What is the 'Code' field on the project creation page?
Background
When creating or editing a project in Procore, you might see a 'Code' field available. See Create a New Project or Update General Project Information.
The Code field can be designated as Required, Optional, or Hidden in the Company level Admin tool. See Create a Project Fieldset.
Answer
The Code field is an optional project name abbreviation used to automate document naming when creating or updating a project.
Example
If the project name is Vortex Business Center, you might enter VTX for the project code. If the naming standard has the Project field active, VTX will show where the Project field appears in the naming convention.
When using Procore’s Document Management tool, this code automatically populates the 'Project' field in your naming conventions. Administrators can set the 'Code' field as Required, Optional, or Hidden within the default project fieldset.
